How To Talk Like A Police Person—Most Commonly Used Police Phrases
Always wanted to speak the language of law enforcement without actually becoming a police person? It’s no funny police joke to do so! However, you’re very much in luck, for we have rounded up some of the most commonly used police sayings and have deciphered them for you. Here they are:
“The bag” or “back in the bag.” While it might sound a bit ominous, the bag simply refers to the police officer’s uniform. Back in the bag here means that an officer is back to working in their uniform after spending some time working in civil attire.
“Light up.” Nope, this one isn’t about cheering up but rather about lighting up the emergency lights in order to stop someone.
FIDO. FIDO refers to an unusual situation that might require quite a bit of additional paperwork. If the officers decide not to investigate it any further, they just FIDO or F*** It, Drive On.
“Buzzer.” Buzzer is in reference to the police badge, and flashing it is, respectively, buzzing.
“Cherry patch.” A cherry patch might be a section of any road where drivers often violate street signs or speed. Since there will always be a huge number of tickets to write in such a place, it’s called a cherry patch.
Feeling a bit like an insider now? Good! But you know what’s better? The cop jokes we still have in store for you on this list.

Most Commonly Used Slang Words To Describe Police
Let’s reverse the tables here or “turntables,” as one ingenious character from The Office once said, and look at the most often used slang words to describe law enforcement and police officers. Ready or not, here comes the most often-used police-related lingo:
Five-O. This is an American slang term for police, which is derived from the TV series Hawaii Five-O, which ran from 1968 to 1980. Although it’s a made-up term, it definitely stuck!
As for funny names to call police officers and police puns, the choices are really incredible here. We have alphabet, barney, beatsman (this one’s pretty archaic, though), bizzie, bluecoat, blue heeler, po-po, old bill, officer friendly… Really, there aren’t names by which police officers have not been called already! However, we’re happy to learn most of them are pretty happy names and not something derogatory.
And now that you know both the police lingo and the most common slang names for police, it might be the time to continue checking out our extreme funny police humor bits. Chances are, they’ll ring differently when you have the knowledge and when next time someone asks you to tell me a joke about police officers, you’ll definitely know all the best ones.
